I've got a friend who was in a bad car crash yesterday. Another boy in the car with him died, but he's alive. From what I've been told, he has a brain contusion and possibly a broken neck. Exactly what would that mean for him? He's only 17 and he does all sorts of drugs. Would that compromise his recovery at all?

It might because of withdrawl symptoms, but if hes honnest with the docs and his parents, and works with them- he should come out ok.

if he isn't healthy from all the drugs, then it does affect his recovery. if and when he recovers, he can be charged if he was driving the car, and if drugs were used.
he needs to re-evaluate his life when he gets better.
if he is addicted, then the doctor needs to know, since he might get addicted to certain painkillers as well.
he'll certainly go through detox in the hospital.
talk to the doctor. you might not find out info, since you're not family, but you can try.
